  • The average pay settlement was steady at 3.2% in the three months to September. 
  • The proportion of pay freezes edged up to 3%. 
  • Pay deals agreed at more than 3.5% accounted for a quarter of settlements in the past three months.
  • CPI inflation was unchanged at 1.8%, but RPI eased to 3.9% in September.
  • All measures of inflation are forecast to pick up in the next few months, but should ease back throughout 2008.
